Product details
Overview
MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE from Melexis is a monolithic Triaxis® contactless rotary position sensor IC delivering true 360° sine/cosine analog outputs for resolver replacement in motor control systems. It operates from 3.3V or 5V supply, supports -40°C to 150°C ambient, features 4µs output refresh rate, and is factory-programmed for NdFeB magnet, Z/Y magnetic axis, 60mT full-scale range, and high-bandwidth mode.
For engineers reviewing the MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this page provides verified technical context, SOIC-8 package details, magnetic axis configuration, real-time angular error specs, and validated alternative options for BLDC and PMSM field-oriented control designs.
Technical Context
The MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE implements Triaxis® Hall technology with orthogonal and parallel magnetic field sensing, enabling precise angular measurement using a rotating permanent magnet. Its dual analog outputs (OUT1 = COS, OUT2 = SIN) are ratiometric to VDD and programmable via four application pins for sensitivity, filter bandwidth, and magnetic axis selection.
This variant uses Z/Y intrinsic magnetic axis configuration with gain-matched sensitivity for Bz and By components, supports high-bandwidth programming (tracking delay ≤12 µs), and delivers ≤1° total angular error with dynamic compensation at 25,000 rpm - optimized for end-of-shaft and through-shaft motor encoder applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Refresh Rate | 4 µs - enables real-time angle tracking up to 25,000 rpm with ≤12 µs total tracking delay in high-bandwidth mode. |
| Full-Scale Magnetic Range | 60 mT - factory-programmed for NdFeB magnets, supporting robust operation under mechanical misalignment and temperature drift. |
| Operating Supply | 3.3 V or 5 V - dual-rail support allows direct interface with 3.3V MCUs or 5V legacy systems without level-shifting. |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +150°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor drive environments. |
| Magnetic Axis | Z/Y - configured for through-shaft applications where magnetic flux is applied along Z (axial) and Y (radial) directions. |
| Total Angular Error | ±1° with dynamic compensation - achieved via off-chip arctan(OUT2/OUT1) with offset/gain correction, excluding mechanical system error. |
| Sensitivity Temperature Coefficient | 1100 ppm/°C - matched to NdFeB magnet drift, minimizing temperature-induced angle error over full operating range. |
Pinout & Package
MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE is housed in an 8-pin SOIC-8 package (JEDEC MS-012AC) with exposed pad for thermal performance. Pin 2 and Pin 4 are NC and must be connected to ground for optimal EMC. VDD3V3 and VDD5V are separate supply pins; only one may be powered per application.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VSS | Supply ground reference for all internal circuitry and analog outputs. |
| 2 | NC | No connect - must be tied to ground for EMC compliance. |
| 3 | TEST | Factory test pin - externally grounded for normal operation; floating during programming. |
| 4 | NC | No connect - must be tied to ground for EMC compliance. |
| 5 | OUT2 | Analog SIN output - ratiometric to VDD, 0–100% VDD swing, ±40% VDD full scale at 60 mT. |
| 6 | VDD5V | 5 V supply input - active when 5 V operation selected; VDD3V3 must float. |
| 7 | VDD3V3 | 3.3 V supply input - active when 3.3 V operation selected; VDD5V must float. |
| 8 | OUT1 | Analog COS output - ratiometric to VDD, phase-orthogonal to OUT2 for arctan-based angle computation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triaxis® Hall Sensing | Simultaneous orthogonal (Z) and parallel (Y) field detection enables true 3D angular resolution without external concentrators. |
| Programmable Magnetic Axis | Z/Y configuration supports through-shaft mounting with axial+radial field coupling, eliminating need for custom magnet assemblies. |
| Ratiometric Analog Outputs | OUT1/OUT2 scale linearly with VDD, removing supply voltage dependency from angle calculation in MCU ADC stage. |
| High-Speed Output Update | 4 µs per field component (8 µs full COS+SIN pair) ensures <12 µs latency in high-bandwidth mode for fast-loop FOC. |
| Factory Calibration Option | End-of-line calibration available to reduce total uncorrected angular error from ±10° to <±2° at room temperature. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar absolute rotary position sensing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLX90380LDC-BAB-140-RE | Same SOIC-8 package and Z/Y axis, but 50 mT full-scale range and medium-bandwidth mode (29.5 µs tracking delay). | Better suited for lower-speed applications (<10,000 rpm) with relaxed latency requirements and smaller NdFeB magnets. | Select when system-level SNR allows reduced magnetic range and lower bandwidth reduces EMI susceptibility. |
| MLX90380LGO-BAB-145-RE | TSSOP-16 dual-die fully redundant package, identical Z/Y axis, 60 mT range, and high-bandwidth mode - adds functional safety capability. | Required for ASIL-D systems needing hardware redundancy; occupies larger PCB area and requires dual-supply routing. | Choose for automotive EPS or industrial safety-rated drives where ISO 26262 FMEDA mandates dual-channel fault detection. |
Compared with MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE, the -140-RE variant trades bandwidth for lower noise and easier magnet sizing, while the LGO-BAB-145-RE adds hardware redundancy at the cost of footprint and layout complexity - neither is pin-compatible, but all share identical programming interface and signal processing chain.

FAQ
What is the magnetic axis configuration of MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE?
The MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE is factory-programmed for Z/Y magnetic axis configuration, meaning OUT1 responds to the Z-axis (axial) magnetic field component and OUT2 to the Y-axis (radial) component. This supports through-shaft mounting with two-pole magnets and enables robust operation under mechanical misalignment. The option code "BAB-145" confirms NdFeB magnet compatibility and high-bandwidth mode.
Does MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE support both 3.3V and 5V supply simultaneously?
No, MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE does not support simultaneous 3.3V and 5V supply. Pins 6 (VDD5V) and 7 (VDD3V3) are separate supply inputs; only one must be powered while the other floats. For 3.3V operation, apply 3.135–3.6V to VDD3V3 and leave VDD5V unconnected. For 5V operation, apply 4.5–5.5V to VDD5V and leave VDD3V3 floating - per Section 13.1 of the datasheet.
What is the total angular error specification for MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE?
The MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE achieves ±1° total angular error when dynamic compensation (offset, gain, and phase correction) is applied in the host MCU's arctan(OUT2/OUT1) computation. Without correction, uncorrected error is ±10° at 25°C and ±15° across -40°C to 150°C. The 60 mT full-scale range and 1100 ppm/°C TCS minimize magnet-induced drift in NdFeB-based systems.
Can MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE be reprogrammed after soldering?
Yes, MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE supports post-soldering programming via its TEST pin and supply rails using Melexis' PSF interface. Parameters including magnetic axis, sensitivity range, bandwidth, and TCS can be updated in-system using standard GPIO and voltage sequencing - no dedicated programmer required. Programming voltage threshold is 6.1–7.0 V on VDD during rising edge.
Is MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, MLX90380LDC-BAB-145-RE is AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualified (-40°C to +150°C), RoHS compliant, and designed for automotive powertrain and chassis systems. It meets ESD requirements per AEC-Q100-002 (2 kV HBM) and supports functional safety development per ISO 26262, with diagnostics covering output linearity, offset drift, and supply monitoring - confirmed in Melexis' official qualification reports.
